          does the link in the code look like this?

          <a href="mailto:myemail@gmail.com">hello</a>

          specifically the href part?
          if yes, the code is correct. maybe there is no app configured to open the mailto link

          https://support.apple.com/en-us/102362#:~:text=From the Mail menu in,reader” pop-up menu.

                can you remove: target="_blank" please and remove data-id="0" too please

                usually when you enter just a mailto: link it looks like:

                        So you did it right, and when I click this link, my email program opens.

                        Do you think maybe the issue is with your browser? Can you try a different browser, please?

                          I'm talking about this link in the footer here:

                          image.png

                          Congratulations on the website. It looks really good.

                            Hello Armin, sorry for the late reply. I believe the problem is because I don't use an email program on my Mac, just Gmail via web. In fact, it works perfectly on mobile devices.

                            Thank you for appreciating my work! 🥰

                            Want to tip me? https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/arminunruh

                            Before you post:
                            1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
                            2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
                            3. Disable all Plugins
                            4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

                            This often solves issues you might run into

                            When you post:
                            1. Post a link to where the problem is
                            2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
                            3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
